QCTP machining the nut?

[sophijo]

What lathe do you have? You can send it to me if you can't find some locally. Just cover the postage. It take 10 minutes. If it's not the same lathe as mine or any of the PM lathes, tell the me the exact dimensions you need. Will showed you a good picture of what's needed.

PM offline if you need to.

Roger that! If it doesn't work out here I'll do it too.
